For
one whose performing career has so far spanned some forty years, Albert
Storti is still as passionate about his music today as he was the first
time he ever stepped out to face an audience.

As the consummate professional, Albert has always managed to successfully
combine his natural musical ability and unquestionable commitment with
a healthy dose of entrepreneurial panache.

This has ensured his services have along the years been in constant demand
at a multitude of prestige venues including chic night clubs, piano bars,
fashionable restaurants and five star hotels with engagements taking him
all over Australia and even overseas.

Albert's exquisite piano style is complemented by his vocal ability which
can only be described as that of the classic crooner whose vast and varied
repertoire of international favorites, performed in English, Italian and
Spanish, never fails to create that special, unique ambience which only
the seasoned entertainer is capable of creating.

His performances invariably include a selection of his own popular compositions
executed not only on piano but also, when the occasion demands, on the
piano accordion, another instrument with which Albert is highly proficient.

Albert was for a number of years contracted to the Federal Pacific Hotel
chain and during this time he had the opportunity to tour Australia performing
as far afield as in Australia's Northern Territory at the MGM Grand Darwin
Casino and Lasserter's Hotel Casino Alice Springs, to the island state
of Tasmania where he twinkled the ivories at the Wrest Point Hotel &
Casino in Hobart and again at the Launceston Country Club Resort Casino.

Particularly fond memories remain of the period spent entertaining guests
at Sandals Night Club in the tropical far north Queensland tourist resort
of Cairns, as is a stint overseas working at the Excelsior Hotel in Milan,
Italy.

Back at base Albert has always enjoyed a well deserved reputation for
providing quality music at a list of venues far too long to mention here
but which, in downtown Melbourne alone, include the Windsor, Sofitel and
Chateau Commodore hotels, the Menzies At Rialto (now the Intercontinental),
the Park Hyatt and the Savoy Park Plaza.

It seems appropriate to conclude this brief profile of such an experienced
musician with a comment printed some years back in one of Australia's
most respected daily newspapers, The Age, and in which Peter C. Joyce,
referring to Albert, wrote;

"His background piano playing is always unobtrusively relaxing the
mood, with numbers ranging from Bach to Brubeck. Without doubt, the initial
impression is one of excellence".
